This is a time for friendly puppies under 7 months to play in a safe environment, learning how to communicate with other puppies, while also learning to listen to mom/dad when disctracted. Pups need to have had at least two puppy shots at least one week prior to coming to first class. Proof of vaccination will be needed for all first time puppies.

No prior training necessary to join this class! Puppies need to be at least 7 months old to be in this class. We will teach you how to communicate with your dog, AND how to motivate him/her to do what you want! Treats are used to train new behaviors, but then we teach you how to reward your dog by using things you are already doing that they enjoy, but teaching them to work for it! This way treats are no longer expected.

New clients are welcome, your dog just needs to already know how to sit, down and stay on command, and must be over 1yr old.

As time allows we will also cover fun things like carrying his/her leash in mouth while walking beside you, picking up something for you when you drop it,cleaning up his/her toys, show tricks like crawl, "play dead", spin, jump, speak, "look sad", and other fun things. This is a class meant for those who enjoy working with their dogs, and are looking for new ways to have fun in this area, as well as improve life saving behaviors such as a reliable come, leave-it and stay.

This is a wonderful class for dogs with low confidence levels, as clicker training is the best tool I have ever seen in raising this.

Soft treats pre-cut into pea sized pieces should be brought to each class. You will need to have a clicker to bring to class each week, as well as a long lead for in class training. A lead of 20ft is best, but I'm not picky. I do sell long leads if you do not have one. They are $15 each. You could also use a long rope, it is up to you.

We will be using all clicker training in this class. Both Dog and Owner must already be clicker savvy. We will be doing some agilty exercises, such as jumps and/or tunnels, as well as advanced behaviors such as turning off lights, retrieving obstacles by name (ie the remote), and commands such as "On your mat", "Find Steve", "Close the door/ Open the door" , "bow" and "dance". We will also be doing fun things like teaching the dogs to paint a picture and clean up their toys. Open to Advanced/Clicer Obedience Graduates.
